Check out an application called 'cmus'. Very nice minimal music player on Linux that runs from your terminal. It has support for lots of different formats.

Thank you! Will definitely check it out.

Would you mind sharing the name of that app?

The app is no longer maintained even though it's still for sale in the various Android app stores. It doesn't work for Nougat or higher versions, and I would rather not reward the developer for that behavior. Also, from my understanding, it may not be possible to programmatically produce this specific behavior in Nougat or higher versions (hangup, no ring, no voicemail), but I'm not totally certain.

The test done here was comparing 11.2.2 vs 11.1.2

Isn’t 11.2.1 the battery patch?

You are correct, it appears to be that "patch".

So basically, the difference in performance is likely almost entirely due to the battery patch and has nothing to do the Meltdown-Spectre fix.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."

Seems to me like that applies just as well to the prior ban.

Getting a bit off topic here, but I've always interpreted that aphorism differently, and apparently the history of the saying agrees with me.

I've always interpreted it as being a corollary to "actions speak louder than words". Simply saying something, or having the intention to do something does not mean it will actually get done.

I just assumed it meant both. On the off topic though, I've always liked: "Words without actions lack credibility; Actions without words lack clarity." - John Stott.

Because one day that idea could turn into a product that is valuable.

Hmm, it looks to me like you got very close to 700 units on day one according to Steamspy. 696 units to be exact.

i think we'll see better results in the next few days as the numbers update
